Leticia TorresLCSW

Leticia Torres is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and the challenges that come with big life changes. She draws on 12 years of practice to support people through overwhelming moments. Leticia speaks English and Spanish and sees clients in California while also working with international clients when appropriate.

Leticia treats each person as the expert on their own story. She looks for existing strengths and practical steps that fit daily life. Sessions focus on clear goals, steady progress, and techniques people can use between meetings to feel more grounded.

Her work includes addressing panic and social anxiety, healing from abuse or post-traumatic stress, and navigating feelings around pregnancy and childbirth. She also helps with loneliness, communication problems, guilt and shame, and the strain of family tensions. Young adult concerns and avoidant personality patterns are part of her day-to-day practice as well.

Leticia’s approach is collaborative and straightforward. She listens first, then offers tools and options that match a person’s needs. People who come to her often leave with a plan for small changes and ways to measure progress.

Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk about hard things and try new coping strategies. Leticia emphasizes action that’s realistic for each person’s schedule and life demands.

Approaches that guide online care

Leticia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and healing. One common approach she relies on involves teaching skills to manage overwhelming feelings and panic, such as breath work, grounding, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations. These tools help with panic attacks, social anxiety, and intense worry. Another emphasis is trauma-informed care that helps people process past harm at a pace they can handle, using gradual techniques to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust those methods over time. This is a collaborative process where you and the therapist decide what feels most helpful and realistic for your life.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins during work breaks or between childcare tasks. It also makes it possible to connect with a licensed professional from another state or country when that fits your needs.
